    Ben, you have a nice place! Big house, big back yard, and big trees in the back! Love it!
    The beds will look much better with pavers. The fence looks good too! (most of it)
    Are you able to park vehicles in the back yard?
    This set-up has got to be nicer than Brooklyn.

    If you do in fact drill 3/7" holes in the composite bed, please, please, please post it up on the forum!!

    In all seriousness, double check where the drill bit is gonna come out on the other side of the surface you are drilling. You don't want to drill into a fuel line or brake line or anything else.

    :rofl: Good catch! Quite possibly it's 3/8" holes, but the drill bit is from a gumball machine - got it at an airport in Kazakhstan, so you never really know. Don't ask, I couldn't tell you anyway.

    Yup, I crawled around under the truck a little while ago - dint see nuthin. I'm drilling into the sides, so a fuel line was a concern (the fuel filler anyway) but it's well out of the way from where I'm drilling. I was thinking more along the lines of water getting in there and causing issues with the frame - like the A/C drain saga. Most of what I saw was covered in mud splatter anyway, so it's already exposed to the elements. So far looks safe - wondering if anyone had any experiences to share.

    No Sir.
    Does it fit into a regular curb-side mail box?

    I drilled two 5/16"ish holes into the driver's side bed approx. 2" above the platform rail for my bed platform. No issues.
